CAMBRIDGE TWP. — Numerous arrests were recently made in repeated incidents of theft and vandalism at a closed amusement park in the Irish Hills.

Cambridge Township Police Chief Larry Wibbeler said Thursday that nine high school students from the Waterford and Fenton areas ages 17 and older, four students younger than 16 and one adult were arrested in connection with the reported theft and vandalism Nov. 3 at Prehistoric Forest.

Wibbeler said due to the number of past thefts and vandalism, the new owner had installed surveillance equipment. He said a number of those arrested were seen in the footage wearing class jackets with identifying markings and were in the area for a state cross country meet.

Wibbeler said most of those accused — whose names were not released — were served their arrest warrants over the Christmas holiday and some of the property has been recovered.
